How ~ To use Color

Process color
is full color using four colors of ink; Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, and BlacK (CMYK). To make our yearbook look more professional and reduce placement costs watch that:
  • color photos must fit 100%.
  • enlargements and reductions cost extra.
  • non-square (irregular) photos cost extra.
  • photocopies do not reproduce well due to dot pattern.
  • check wrapping paper used as background or artwork that there is no dot pattern.
  • about $800.00 for 8 pages (one side of a signature) 6 months before delivery..
Spot color
can be printed at 10%, 30%, 60%, or 100%.
  • about $300.00 for 8 pages (one side of a signature).
Use Spot color for:
  • large initial letters
  • first word in copy
  • symbols
  • small graphics
  • headlines
  • text
  • to accent colors in photos
 Do not use Spot color for:
  • heavy colors as backgrounds, sidebars, or other panels as they overpower content.
  • yellow and pink text is hard to read
Vibratone paper
can be used to create colorful designs, inexpensive backgrounds, or a special page highlight. Simply place the paper onto the page as if it were artwork. There are 14 colors to choose from.
PMS 151 CYAN PMS 279 PMS 072 BLACK WARM GRAY 11C PURPLE
COOL GRAY 8C PMS 101 PMS 375 PMS 355 PMS 3272 PMS 341 PMS 219
Please be advised that these colors are only RGB approximations
Process Color
Spot Color
This page used only one color in addition to the color black for the black and white pictures. The title boxes and the text on the pages are 100% green and the background on the page is 50% green. Spot color is cheaper than Process color.
Same color as type
This page used only one color, black, and shades of black for print and shading. There is no extra cost.
The gold color on this page is treated as a fifth color, in addition to Cyan, Magenta, Yellow, and Black. Additional colors cost extra.
This page used the same Spot color for typing and artwork.
Here the background has been carefully lined up with the lines around the pictures (registered) at extra cost. And the lines around the black and white pictures are also registered for additional cost.
